章 10: He Rejected?
編集者: Atlas Studios
After Lin Xi finished speaking, the live-stream exploded.
[No way? Why did the goddess take the initiative to invite Chen Che?]
[The script is going the wrong way. Shouldn't it be Chen Che's request?]
[Goddess, don't! How can you lure a wolf into your house!]
Chen Che was also very surprised. He did not expect Lin Xi to take the initiative to invite him.
If it was someone else, they might gladly accept such an opportunity, but Chen Che would not agree. After all, he had never thought of staying overnight.
Besides, he didn't even want to freeload, let alone stay.
After a short silence, Chen Che smiled. "There's no need. As the saying goes, distance makes the heart grow fonder."
As soon as he said this, the comments in the live-stream stopped.
The netizens in front of the screen were shocked and thought to themselves, "He… he rejected her?"
The netizens were shocked, and so was Lin Xi.
"Chen Che, I'm not joking with you. I'm really inviting you to stay. The guest bedroom is left empty anyway."
Chen Che shrugged. "I know you're not joking, but I'm serious too."
Lin Xi frowned. "But if you don't go to my place, where can you go? You have moved out of the rental, and you don't have any money on you."
"How about this? If you don't want to come over to my place, I'll transfer some money to you. You can stay in a hotel."
"Aiya, don't worry about me. I have a place to stay." Knowing that Lin Xi wouldn't believe him easily, Chen Che continued, "If I don't have a place to stay, why would I move out? Wouldn't that be weird?"
"Really?" Lin Xi was skeptical.
"It's true. I'm a dog if I lie to you." Chen Che's tone was firm.
Seeing that Chen Che didn't seem to be lying, Lin Xi didn't think too much about it. "Alright, I'll go back myself. You've been working hard all day, so don't send me home."
"How can I do that? How can I be at ease with you going back alone? Anyway, your house is not far from here. Let's go." Chen Che took Lin Xi's hand and left, not giving her a chance to refuse.
Lin Xi smiled and was warmed by Chen Che's words again.
The highlight of the show that they were looking forward to did not appear. Some netizens felt extremely uncomfortable.
Not only did they not get the reward for the quiz, but the script they had prepared in advance was also wasted.
If everything had gone according to what they had expected, as long as Chen Che took the initiative to ask to stay over, there would be a large number of complaint videos released tonight.
But now, there was no chance at all!
Chen Che's actions attracted fans again. Many people had already started to defend Chen Che.
Although the number of viewers was comparable to the other groups, the live-stream was no longer one-sided.
Not only that, out of the ten groups of participants, Chen Che's group was still in the lead.
Twenty minutes later, Chen Che sent Lin Xi back to her residence.
Seeing the lights in Lin Xi's room turn on, Chen Che left in relief.
"You've been running around all day with me too. Why aren't you getting off work?" Chen Che looked at the video camera and asked.
VJ smiled. "According to the producers, I can only finish filming for the day if you rest."
"Alright." Chen Che shrugged and did not say anything else.
At this moment, the netizens could not help but wonder where Chen Che would go next. Did he really have a place to stay?
Lin Xi, who had returned home, also opened the live-stream and paid close attention.
Not long after, Chen Che returned to the park.
That's right, this was where he's sleeping tonight!
Actually, when they were on a date here, Chen Che had already found a place.
Under everyone's attention, Chen Che arrived at the small square in the corner with ease.
At this time, the square dance group had already left. There was no one here.
"Alright, it's time for me to rest. You can get off work now," Chen Che said.
The cameraman was stunned. "Are you sleeping here tonight?"
"That's right. The production team doesn't have any requirements for this, right?" Chen Che smiled.
Upon hearing this, VJ put down the camera and turned it off.
"Chen Che, I have to say that I really admire you. Although you're poor and stingy, you have a backbone."
"Thank you for the compliment. It should be the hardest for you to follow me. You're also very impressive to be able to hold on for a day with a camera." Chen Che hurriedly came to support each other.
"Sigh, this is all fate." The cameraman laughed. "Alright, go rest. According to the current situation, your group has a high chance of winning first place. Best of luck."
With that, he followed VJ and left quickly.
At the same time, although the live-stream had stopped, the netizens were unwilling to log off. The two sides actually started fighting.
[Is there something wrong with Chen Che's brain? Instead of going to the goddess' house, he would rather go to the park?]
[If he goes, you guys will say that he is freeloading. He doesn't go, you guys are going crazy. Can you just let him live?]
[That's right. In my opinion, Chen Che is full of righteousness!]
[Forget it. In my opinion, Chen Che's move is called playing hard to get!]
[Yes, yes, yes. He's deliberately pretending to be pitiful. When the goddess finds out, her heart will ache even more. He rejected her once, but can he reject her twice?]
[Stop spouting nonsense. Not everyone is as filthy as you!]
…
Chen Che, who had nothing to do, entered the live broadcast room at this moment. Seeing that someone was defending him, he smiled and muttered, "Looks like not all of them are anti-fans."
After mumbling, Chen Che turned off his phone. He lay on the stone bench and looked at the starry sky, thinking about what to do next.
Now that he is no longer renting, he could save even more money.
However, he could only earn one salary by delivering packages. Even if he could save 3,000 dollars a month, it would only be 36,000 dollars a year.
Chen Che was naturally not satisfied with this.
However, if he went to work part-time, it meant that he would have less time to accompany Lin Xi. Even if it was for the sake of the system, he could not do this.
In this way, he had to find a job that would not interfere with his relationship and can also earn money.
At this moment, Lin Xi was staring at her phone with anger and heartache.
In her opinion, he would rather sleep in the park than live in a house. Even if he was upright and afraid of others gossiping, it shouldn't be like this, right?
If his body was damaged, wouldn't everything be over?
She wanted to go to the park to look for Chen Che immediately, but she gave up.
This was because she understood that according to what happened earlier, Chen Che would definitely not come.
"Sigh." Lin Xi sighed and could only wash up and rest.
However, lying on the bed, Lin Xi was not sleepy at all. The moment she closed her eyes, she saw Chen Che's shadow.
Helpless, she watched the replay of the entire day.
Looking at the memorable scenes, she cried and laughed.
…
Unknowingly, a few hours had passed, and the sky was already bright outside.
In the park, Chen Che woke up early. He did not sleep well at all that night. He was either woken up by the strange sound or by the cold wind.
Rubbing his dizzy head, Chen Che sighed. "Looks like I have to find a new place. I don't want to die without spending my money yet."
After waking up for a while, Chen Che began to run and exercise. He was inspired by the uncles and aunties to pick up bottles.
Needless to say, he had gained a lot early in the morning. He actually earned $5 for it.
Holding the money in his hand, Chen Che smiled. He had already discovered a way to make money.
When he returned to the stone bench, it didn't take long for the VJ to arrive.
"Chen Che!"
At this moment, a voice sounded from behind.
